Some Statistics regarding Large Vessel Vasculitis
Some statstics came through to us this morning so thought I would share them, but please do not shoot the messenger, I am just passing them on. There is estimated to be 1 new case of TAK (Takayasu Arteritis ) per million here in Europe per year. Average age of onset is 23 years. 50% of those diagnosed

B12 & Hearing Loss
But I have been referred to a gastroenterologist at my request for radiation
enteritis
, which is further contributing to the B12 deficiency. It was such a breath of fresh air to talk to a doctor who had knowledge of B12 deficiency and believed me. And I might be wired for sound very soon. Lol 😃

Interesting bit of info! Thoughts?
RA started after I had flu and a hideous bout of gastric
enteritis
(hospitalised) when I was 3 months pregnant with my son. For about 3 years before my sons birth I ate lots of tuna fish a week (mercury!).

Fisrt signs were tender scalp when hair drying and brushing. That night a sudden headache like no other. Nearest equivalent pain was a sudden bone fracture. Immediate

Narrowed esophagus
My Rheumy has asked me if I have difficulty swallowing. So I wonder if this is a symptom of GCA. I recently had a colonoscopy and endoscopy with a stretching of the esophagus. The gastro doctor informed me that my esophagus was very narrowed and wondered if it had been bothering me. He wondered if it

Tiredness
Please can you good folk tell me whether extreme tiredness is linked to reduction of preds. It has taken a while but I am now down to 12.5 with no problems with pain. Fluid retention is not good (maybe due somewhat to the heat) and my hot flushes are worse. But my main concern is that I keep falling
